Emphasis - Industrial Pharmacy

Description

The Department of Pharmaceutics and Drug Delivery at the University of Mississippi is establishing a professional master’s in pharmaceutical sciences with an emphasis in industrial pharmacy program (the Professional Master’s Program). The Professional Master’s Program will be a nonthesis track program designed to provide fundamental and applied knowledge of the pharmaceutical sciences to prepare B.S.-level chemical engineers and scientists (pharmacy, biology and chemistry) for a career in the pharmaceutical industry.

Other Academic Requirements

The Professional Master’s Program will not require the completion of a thesis or an examination process. Students will complete several small projects that complement ongoing research in the department instead of a thesis project.
